Interesting stuff. Raila and Uhuru needs to read this!! The Gema masses and elites were really with Raila in 2002-2003, riding on the national euphoria, only for the elite to turn their back and the gema masses in Rift Valley were heavily punished in 2005 going forward to 2007 up to now. The gema masses learnt their lesson and all indcations are they want their peace, their question is what is there for them in Uhuru post 2022? What haven't they seen of Uhuru aparat of destruction of their business. With Covid it is now clear people cannot run away from Uhuru economic mess and have to square it out around here. Labour immigration is squarely dead! I expect all those in Arab to be thrown back once the aviation industry starts- they are already being kicked out to the streets with oil prices having hit rock bottom.
That Uhuru delivery to Gema is Raila? Raila? Really? As you say the masses easily divorced Raila in 2003, why is it so hard to uncouple Ruto from Gema. No such campaign as we are seeing, was mounted to dislodge Raila from Gema in 2003-2004.
For now, Uhuru has directed all roads budget to central while Raila gets mkeka and choo.
Why would the state machinery be used by gema elite to dislodge ruto out of the ground, despite real threat of corona devastation? They have only 2 years while ruto had 7 years of unfettered power.
You can tell once the MPs and governors declare their support for Uhuru in press conferences, they are very happy to going home and snoring - it is such a nice peace card. But for for how long with desperate masses facing corona devastation.
We have seen this movie before, It started with Raila's popularity in Gema after he toshad Kibaki. We remember how Ruto was popular in Luoland when he teamed up with RAO, and who can forget Raila's popularity in Kalenjin land leading to the 2007 PEV.
Raila is nowhere on the ground; GEMA ground is with Ruto. The rest I keep telling you are details. We have been on this for 2yrs now.
Just following the news.. the negative headlines are fast & furious. Raila is plastering twirra optics - as he symbolically sanitize Warugurus of COVID Tangatanga flu. I'm struggling to find a good story about your boy... especially in Zendro. You can't have the ground without a ship to safely ferry folks there in high water.
